Horizon 2020: apply for European funds for business innovation

A European funding programme is to invest more than €400 millon across 14 initiatives launched this month.

Business support is available for projects in a range of fields including cloud computing, Internet of Things, space and satellite technologies, the circular economy, rail, clean skies and personalised medicine.

The funding is part of the EU’s Horizon 2020 fund for researchers and business, which aims to ensure Europe produces world-class science and that barriers to innovation are removed.

The UK Government recently said that businesses and universities should continue to bid for EU funding while the UK remained a member of the EU and that it would underwrite payment of awards even when projects continued beyond UK membership.
